Local partners
The banks that joined forces to found UniCredit Group have a long tradition in promoting local culture and artistic events in the countries in which it operates. This commitment is evidenced by the extensive art collection of UniCredit Group and dozens of initiatives within UniCredit & Art Project. We believe that culture is always the engine of local economic development through its ability to sustain innovation and stimulate science economy.
Since we are very close to the communities in which we operate, we try to maintain a close relationship with them by encouraging all initiatives that contribute to their cultural enrichment. Thus, we support cultural diversity and offer support to projects in the area of music, literature, film, and visual arts.
The cultural-artistic component of the bank’s sustainable development strategy is materialized in our involvement in long-term partnerships. Our collaborators and partners include NGOs, cultural institutions, academies, curators, and artists.

In a world where most tech events are commercial, UPT chose a different path: to curate the future not for profit, but for the public.
Tech Talks turns frontier topics, such as AI, Quantum Computing, Digital Democracy, Aerospace, Biomedical Engineering, into accessible knowledge that anyone can understand, regardless of background.
Because here, the belief is simple: Shaping Tomorrow. In Public. With Purpose.
Tech Talks began as part of the Flight Festival Edutainment Program, founded by Ovidiu Megan. What started as an artistic-educational experiment quickly proved its societal value.
In 2022, the concept was entrusted to Politehnica University Timișoara, becoming part of the Rector’s strategic vision to position UPT as a public voice in technology. Under UPT’s leadership, Tech Talks evolved from a festival stage into a national platform for democratizing knowledge and connecting Romania to global thinkers.
Povestea Prospero: Când am pornit Prospero, în 1991, nu știam nimic despre pâine sau cum să conduci o afacere. Eram doi ingineri mecanici care au învățat să fie și brutari, și șoferi, și vânzători, și nu în ultimul rând, părinți. Într-o piață care nu căuta asta, ne-am hotărât să facem pâine cu gust, cu savoare și mai ales cu metode artizanale. Prin salturi când timide, când îndrăznețe, am crescut. În 2008, eram singura brutărie la standarde europene din Timișoara, iar faptul că am trecut de criză împreună, ca echipa, dar și ca familie, ne-a arătat că putem face lucrurile și altfel. Ne-am specializat și în produse de patiserie și cofetărie, păstrând timpul și dorința de a ne autodepăși zi de zi ca ingrediente principale.Nu e ușor, dar căutăm tot timpul să găsim plăcerea în ceea ce facem. Ba chiar avem o șansă să facem ceva cu adevărat important.
